English abstract

Before the start of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, 500 thousand people were registered as participants in the ATO/JFO since 2014. Due to a full-scale Russian invasion, the number of individuals mobilized or joining volunteer forces, as well as their families and the families of fallen defenders, could exceed 5 million people. The transition of military personnel to civilian life will be a serious challenge for the country. For example, unflattering US statistics show that suicides among veterans for a long time remained at an average of 22 cases daily. In Ukraine, such figures as of 2023, given the circumstances of a full-scale war, have not yet been made public. Among the main problems that currently exist in Ukraine: - failure to identify the real needs of veterans and members of their families, as well as their dramatic changes since the full-scale invasion; - ignorance by veterans and members of their families about opportunities from the state, budgetary institutions, and international organizations; - support for veterans is organized as a system of payments and benefits, for which veterans must apply separately. The article analyzes the state policy of supporting war veterans in Ukraine in the active phase of hostilities, prospects for the introduction of new mechanisms, problems of providing for veterans and ways to solve them. The purpose of the article is to analyze the state policy of supporting war veterans in Ukraine in the active phase of hostilities, prospects for the introduction of new mechanisms, problems of providing for veterans and ways to solve them. The key priorities of the Ministry of Veterans are summarized, including: rehabilitation and return of veterans to normal life; memory and respect; resocialization. The system of social protection, healthcare, psychological rehabilitation and socialization of war veterans, which need improvement, has been partially revealed. Reform of support for war veterans involves the use of a comprehensive strategy to increase the social security of war veterans and the introduction of new methods and practices to solve their key problems. The reform needs a strong vertical system for managing the social security of veterans in order to change society's attitude towards them over time and make it impossible to violate the rights of veterans without compelling reasons. To implement this vertical management system, the following steps must be taken: - determining the foundations of state policy in the field of social security for war veterans; - improvement of strategic planning in the field of social security for war veterans; - proper coordination of the work of state and local governments related to the organization and provision of benefits and services to war veterans
